Lisa you're a strong awesome lady. I too have no physical friends. My social anxiety keeps me in my apartment. When I see people I have no problem saying hi. If you're talking about SSDI I would think it would go right with you since it's government. Can your previous doctor at least send a RX to pharmacy near you? And then do a referral to doctor close to you? Stay on here as much as possible for support of friends who you know and hopefully you won't feel so alone. Love ya girl. 💖

Hang your favorite things.pictures and stuff up. Know this is your place and you can decorate the way you want,! You can put your music on and dance and sing with no judgement and feel free! Enjoy your new place. When you are ready introduce yourself to your neighbors. It takes time to settle in, but you got this!

Just start by saying hi to your neighbors and letting them know that you are new to the area. Also are you taking your meds?

Hello. Maybe you could make friends with your neighbors first.

@A MyDepressionTeam Member, you are most definitely not alone here on MDT. We all suffer and cope with mental illness and it isn't easy and it isn't fun either but we do it. Don't ask me how but we do it and I think it is sheer bloody minded determination.

You say you are struggling with yourself and don't feel welcome anywhere that is not good, are you on medications and if so are you taking them as prescribed? Also do you have any one, a therapist or doctor, that you can talk with and start working through this struggle. Another suggestion would be be journaling and I suggest that because writing things down on paper is another way getting them out of your system and it will also help you to start making sense of things.
